It’s funny that people all over the world are scared of our “deadly creatures”, but the reality is you rarely ever come across these in towns or cities. Attacks and fatalities are quite rare. I hope our support for Ukraine continues as long as it is needed.
Wow, It seems Ukrainians know a lot more about Australia than we do about Ukraine. Our unfortunate two year crash course has taught us a lot about Ukraine, and there’s a lot to like. Would really love to visit after they’ve kicked those grubby Russians back over the border.

ALL Ukrainians are welcome here in Australia 🇦🇺 SLAVA UKRAINE 🇺🇦 I look forward to my next visit to Kyiv, Ukraine very very soon.
Proud to wear a jacket with the Ukraine freedom trident, it, and now they ( I bought 2, no idea why) are worn everywhere I go. My saying in Ausi, Go hard, or go home. So never give up!
Australian here, really enjoyed this video. Impressed with the knowledge displayed, appeciate the positive opinions of our place and people. Australia stands with Ukraine 🇭🇲🤝🇺🇦
Its really solemn for a person in a country at war to wish us peace and happiness, you never know the true value of both until you are at risk of losing it.
Many years ago I worked with a man from Ukraine. He came to Australia after the second world war.I used to call him uncle nick.Recently I donated crypto at the start of the war to get your funds up fast.I think world wide many people donated this way.All my best to you all going forward with this conflict and I hope for it to end soon. Happy New Year to all Ukrainians.
@@redherring6154 Isn't it funny how Zelenskyy asked for 'ammo not a ride, while staying and fighting but Putin asked 'for a ride not ammo' running away and hiding in St Petersburg and then did a deal with the leader of the internal armed insurrection? Kyiv in 3 days Vatnik, Kyiv in 3 days! 😂
Australian soldiers are training your people at the moment and sending aid We're not a big military but we have been known to be crazy in conflict. We also stand alongside our NZ mates. If we're crazy then they are just as insane. Maybe it's the water but we'll always do our best to help 😀
@@MicMc539 shameful? What are you talking about? Russia drops bombs on innocent people and they need help. It's the equivalent of calling the cops. Ukraine asked for help and got it. I would too.
I was most impressed that someone actually knew about the Emu Wars of Western Australia, even if they were confused that it even happened, like we were! NSW in Oz🇦🇺🦘
Impressively well informed. Emu wars even. 😀. And yes. Where are those F18s? On their way I hope. Learning a lot about Ukraine since this war started and very impressed. You will win 👍🇺🇦 🇺🇦🇦🇺
As an Australian this was a very funny interview with Ukrainian people! I constantly smiled & laughed.😂 I have been to Kiev & Odessa 3 times over the years. I loved the country, it’s cities & it’s people! I am obviously saddened with the war at the moment as I still have friends in Odessa. I have a lovely ornate pottery wall plaque on my wall of the Odessa Opera House. Just know my thoughts, wishes & love are always with you! I hope to return one day. 🇺🇦🤝🇦🇺♥️ P.s. I will send our Battle Roos to you! 💪🏼 🦘😈🦘😈🤣
Ukraine must have an excellent education system, they are so knowledgeable and well spoken, and we really should send them at least one division of kangaroos.
I think the real warriors, however, are the Emus. They’ve won two wars already apparently although I did miss that in the news. Send Emus and Kangaroos.
@@teeanahera8949 The Emu wars were real. They were eating wheat seeds, and infant crops, and exploding in number. So we sent a division of Soldiers out to cull them. But an Emu is 95% feathers. The Soldiers used about 50,000 rounds, and only managed to kill a handful of Emus. Running out of ammo, our Soldiers bravely retreated... This actually happened twice. It may be why First Australians never adopted a bow and arrow. An Emu's feathers stop any arrow before it hits anything important, and arrows either bounce off a kangaroo, or piss it off. Neither's a good result. Currently we're losing Wars against Camels, Water Buffalo and Cane Toads. All of which we introduced. 😥
@@tsubadaikhan6332 there were THREE soldiers and they used about 10,000 rounds to kill just under 1,000 emus. After this complete disaster the government returned to the original plan and issued ammunition directly to the farmers, who were mostly verterans of the First World War. After that emu numbers were reduced, but not to the level desired by locals (that being zero). The aboriginals had no need for bows as the woomera is an all weather weapon (a bow is definitely not) and a woomera provides more punch for less work/weight/effort/training. A spear driven by a womera would go through an emu regardless of its feathers.
Sadly the emu war wasnt a joke. Humans lost. But it was a stupid idea doomed from the start. Those 2 young guys were really well informed. Tell the nice lady we wish her well and that we are quite safe from those animals. You dont really see them. You need to come visit when its possible.
The emu war. A sad tale of European Australians trying hard but not knowing how to go about it. Non indigenous Australians still have a lot to learn. A bit slow really.
"you don't really see them" ??? !! who has time to look around when you are being torn apart by a great white shark? That said, I have not seen every deadly snake I've accidentally kicked until after I've kicked it and subsequently returned to the ground. I have been bitten by several red backed spiders (all at once) and I did not see them until i shook out my clothes looking for them. I have been stalked by a saltwater crocodile and had to detour around massive Roos with attitude. It is reasonable to say you don't actually see them, but unreasonable to leave out " until it is to late". The Emu War has never ended. The Dingo War is the real story. Koalas are functionally extinct ( that cute look is actually inbreeding and they are genetically doomed ) This place is a saga.
I'm an Australian who went to Ukraine in 2011, before the US led coup detat. I would be killed if I entered their country now because they are a fascist hellhole. You don't know anything about this country.
Thank you for referring to yourself not all Australians. I forone see this completely opposite but that is my right. Best of luck in 2024. Oil is about to go through roof, I fear the ppl we are once we can blame someone for sacrificing economics for a greater good
I wished we would do more to support Ukraine. Some of us follow what's going on in Ukraine every day and donate what we can afford. Heroiam Slava ! Also the dangerous animal thing is way overblown.
@@jamieleslie1177 I have a background in Russian history from Tsarist years until now, and I have been following events very very closely for almost 2 years. So yes I have investigated what's really going on in Ukraine - that's why I support them more than ever. Are you referring to the lies of right-wing media in Australia, such as Fox and other Murdoch press? Or to left wing or independent media here? There are multiple narratives in the media space. Newsflash - the government in Australia doesn't dictate a narrative to our media. For in depth background, information and analysis you do need to use sources outside Australia. Use multiple sources, compare and contrast, evaluate source reliability, and especially use critical thinking at all times. Do this in depth for a year or two, you might stop making silly statements about something you obviously know very little about
We understand that Ukraine fights for our freedom too. Aussies stand with Ukraine until victory. Thank you for teaching the world how valuable democracy is. Slava Ukraine and Glory to the heroes
I really wish we could do more for Ukraine outside of NATO we are the main country that helps and donates military and humanitarian aid and we will do so even after the war ends. Like Jake broe says GLORY TO THE HEROES,GLORY TO UKRAINE,so you all hang in there and know that AUSTRALIA WILL BE THERE FOR YOU NO MATTER WHAT.YOU ALL TAKE CARE AND HANG IN THERE. ❤
Among other things, Australia provides Ukraine with flat-pack cardboard drones. It’s a very cost effective way to use drones and they can be transported easily.
@@riykkzsunshine9669 Please bear in mind that countries who give “western aid” have issues within their own countries that need addressing like homelessness, medical etc. (I’m not comparing this to war just pointing out facts) Countries give more than they can actually afford, which I don’t begrudge, but please try not to sound ungrateful there are enough people in those countries complaining about how much is sent OS in aid without people receiving it complaining. I hope peace comes soon
@@riykkzsunshine9669 The United States is a net exporter of Petroleum Products and LNG. The longer this War goes on, the more Profit Exxon-Mobil and Chevron make. The USA organises enough weapons for Ukraine to stand firm, but not enough for them to win. It's a sucky situation for Ukraine to be in.
I feel Ukraine will become a popular travel destination for Australians after the war has ended. Ukraine will become a thriving and prosperous democracy in the future.
That depends upon who wins the war. The American conservatives are blocking aid to Ukraine in Congress. The top Republicans support Putin and Trump has openly said he admires Putin.

My love for the Ukrainian People and culture grows larger each time I find out more of these beautiful people and I am so thrilled that the Ukrainian People know more about us than we know about them and having a fantastic relationship with somebody in Odessa has only broadened my understanding of such a diverse culture ♥️ ❤️ 💙 💖 💗 Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 ♥️ ❤️ 💖
as an australian.. this video warms my heart. the ukrainian people seem so nice and obviously dont deserve what they are going through. what is fascinating though is that they have some awareness /knowledge about australia. if you asked americans these questions... they wouldnt have a clue.
The young lady recognised that Australia is (currently) not in dire conflict with any country. The experience of Australia is so different from that of Europe. We have problems, have done wrong by the Aboriginal peoples and are vulnerable to China, but we have a different mentality to Europeans who have had to live generationally with conflicts with neighbours at huge cost. Australians do support Ukraine in this war of aggression by Russia that is seeking to impose its imperialist vision on the country and people of Ukraine. We see Ukrainians as independent people and they have proved to be resilient, innovative and strong. My view of Russia and Russians has plummeted since Putin’s war of terror. I’d be happy to welcome Ukrainians to this country. We have a lot in common. The Russians can go jump.
Going to be honest, when i started this video, I didn't expect someone to say aboriginal art. I just thought it was going to be animals like usual. Thank you, Ukraine, for being different and knowing Australia
I'm glad we can help Ukrainians during this very difficult time. I have to say, they know a lot more about Australia than people from other countries do! I'm impressed 😊 Just a note: dingoes have been here about 4000 years - a long time before English ppl came here. And most of us live in large cities, so we hardly ever see crocodiles, sharks or other dangerous animals 😅
Dingoes are estimated to have been here over 6,000 years ago. All the “large cities” above Gladstone or Exmouth have crocs close enough to town for people to see them. My favourite is the croc that crawled up on to the freshly laid concrete footpath in Cooktown right at the ‘Beware Crocodiles’ sign. Crocs are seen in Cairns, Darwin, middle of Mackay in the Pioneer river, and the outskirts of Townsville & Rocky.
LOL 3:30 ~ Buddy! Living in Australia, is not as dangerous as living in Ukraine. If we all owned a pet Taipan, then living in Australia wouldn't be more dangerous than living in Ukraine. How to explain this? There are a lot of very old jokes that have become part of the culture, the tradition. We used to joke to people from England, that we all rode around on Kangaroos. We told them Australian schoolgirls are taken out into the desert when they turn 13, and set loose, and if / when they walk out, they're accepted as adults. We told American servicemen in training for the Vietnam war, that Australia has drop-bears. A drop Bear is like a a Vampire or Werewolf version of a Koala. They drop from the trees and rip your throat out. Why did we tell them that? So they'd walk around all the time looking up and tripping over things, while we laughed at them. it started as a very simple joke from one Australian soldier to one American soldier, but it has become part of the national folklore. There are a few very poisonous critters here, but you hardly ever see one. They do exist, but if you live a normal suburban lifestyle, you're not going to get killed by one. Or ~ ok, people do get struck by lightening, people do get squished under falling trees ~ examples of both have happened in the last 36 hours, within about 40km of my house. That doesn't mean those are normal things. It's probably not going to happen to me or you. PS: If I see any drop bears I'll stick a postal stamp over one eye and post them to Putin c/o The Kremlin. PS: Margot Robie is an Australian and we're very proud of her. If you judge Australia by Margot, that'd be excellent.
Australian here. You’re welcome to all the help we can provide. Ukrainians seem like the most beautiful people and I loved these interviews. We’ll continue to fight the kangaroos so it’s safe if you ever decide to visit, in which case you’d be more than welcome. Stay strong Ukraine 🇺🇦
🇦🇺💙💛✌ 🇺🇦 I came to Australia from a war torn country in Africa in 1974. For the first time I was lucky enough to visit Tasmania for a week 24th December to 31st where also for the 1st time I and my daughter who lives in Canada and who also shouted me me this holiday, watched a part of Melbourne's fireworks. I cannot begin to describe the magnificence of the world heritage wilderness of this ancient island. This was a very fun video to watch and I am impressed about how much Ukrainians know, even the Emu war which was an actual thing until the stupid Brits gave up!😂 I have lived with many of the "killer" wildlife peacefully on a 20 hectare property in a remote part of the Victorian High Country including the third most venomous snake in the world, the Eastern Brown, frequent visitors that came for water when it is was very hot and dry and did me the favour of eating mice that were feasting on the chicken's grain. We had a healthy respect for one another but I did have to call in a local snake expert a couple of times to catch very big Browns who decided to move in permanently and return them back up into the mountains.
@@MicMc539another Russian bot only two years on UA-cam. Australia is full of people that emigrated from Europe and hate Russia so you would be treated really well here speaking the way you do!
You do realise that the Liberals want a ceasefire with Russia keeping the land they’ve won so far. The conservatives in the USA are blocking Biden’s aid to Ukraine and Trump has openly supported Putin. Ukraine will lose if any conservatives gain power in the US.
1:30 Antarica is the driest continent. There are places in Australia (such as where I live,) where we have an average annual rainfall of over 2000mm (2 meters!) Just a couple of weeks ago during an extreme flood we had 870mm of rain in 24 hours.
As an Australian I feel honoured to think that your people think and know so much of our little island. I also feel embarrassed by the sheer idiocy of out stupid, incompitent government. Your country has asked for helicopters and our pigs have let you down. For that I feel ashamed. We as a race of people in our books are great, friendly, outgoing and we only wish we could do more to help you people. It is great to see your spirits so high you poor bugger's, my heart goes out too you.
As Australians we are disgusted with Russia (Putin ) and all Russian citizens that are keeping their heads in the sand not wanting to be “ political “ allowing THEIR Country’s unprovoked aggression to destroy the lives of people that are meant to have so much in common… for what ?That’s not the Australian way. We help our neighbours, we help strangers in need and would fight to protect the defenceless. All free democratic peace loving nations around the world should be doing so much more to support Ukraine. Stay strong….We stand with Ukraine 🇺🇦 ❤️
I loved this, hopefully many Ukrainians can come visit us soon. I made sure to visit Ukraine when I went to Europe in Feb/March 2023 (Uzhhorod and Lviv) and it was fantastic, highly recommend! Still keep some hryvnia in my wallet for when I return 😉Honestly still thinking about Lviv Handmade Chocolate...
Ukrainians arent just the coolest people in the world, they're incredibly well informed. I look forward to visiting your country as soon as possible, in happier times.
Wow. Your interview just gave us more reasons to love Ukraine and Ukrainians. So impressed by how knowledgeable the people you interviewed were. I'm from Aotearoa/ New Zealand and sadly, our new government is no longer doing much to help Ukraine but, l'm so grateful to Australia for their on-going help. I know the man said he was joking about the Emu Wars but, they were a real thing - well, at least one war was. "The Emu War was a military operation in Western Australia in 1932 to control the population of emus, a large, flightless bird that was destroying crops: After World War I, thousands of "soldier settlers" moved to Western Australia, and emus migrated to the area in search of food. The Great Depression was also straining farmers' crops. The Australian government sent soldiers with rifles to shoot the emus, but the operation was a failure. The emus were quick and difficult to target, and the military only killed about 1,000 of the estimated 20,000 emus in the area. The operation was deemed a failure, and the military withdrew. The emus continued to thrive, and farmers had to find other ways to protect their crops. The Emu War is a bizarre chapter in Australian history that highlights the emus' role in the country's ecosystem and cultural identity. The emus were considered the "victors" of the war."
Australian here. This demonstrates how well educated and civil ukrainians are. Australia will always support countries like ukraine when faced with such bold faced aggression. It makes me happy to know our taxes are going to such a good cause and people.
I think it both wonderful, and disturbing how much it seems that Ukrainians know about Australia. Disturbing as you seem to have a better understanding than our own politicians Love the two guys talking about the emu war and the animals.. funny buggers. (Except we only lost to Emu's once, mainly because we sent an Artillery officer to sort out an infantry problem, the Emu's were really pissed off because their mates were wiped out in Tasmania, along with the Tasmanian Tiger, so you can't blame them.... and Emu's are not Ostriches)
Australian here, thank you to the interviewer and interviewees for an enjoyable video, and hoping for the best outcome in the future for Ukraine.
Thanks from the interviewer)

💙🇺🇦💛
Congratulations on having such an intelligent and educated population.
Love from Australia ❤
It’s funny that people all over the world are scared of our “deadly creatures”, but the reality is you rarely ever come across these in towns or cities. Attacks and fatalities are quite rare. I hope our support for Ukraine continues as long as it is needed.
I used to walk to school in suburban Melbourne. Once I walked over a living tiger snake.
Except the dropbears!
The deadliest thing in australia this christmas was the wild weather.
We are lucky not to share a border with ruSSia and our deadly creatures are kind and gentle compared to the orcs.

Best wishes from Australia to Ukraine, so impressed by the courage and fortitude these people have at this time
Wow, It seems Ukrainians know a lot more about Australia than we do about Ukraine. Our unfortunate two year crash course has taught us a lot about Ukraine, and there’s a lot to like. Would really love to visit after they’ve kicked those grubby Russians back over the border.

Love from an Aussie to Ukraine.
I have been to Kyiv, Ukraine 3 times and I absolutely love everything about this place in particular the people. Everyone I met in Ukraine they always treated me so kindly warm and respectful. ALL Ukrainians are welcome here in Australia 🇦🇺 SLAVA UKRAINE 🇺🇦 I look forward to my next visit to Kyiv, Ukraine very very soon.

Far better than almost all Americans
Proud to wear a jacket with the Ukraine freedom trident, it, and now they ( I bought 2, no idea why) are worn everywhere I go. My saying in Ausi, Go hard, or go home. So never give up!
From an Aussie to Ukrainians, we love you and wish you well. I hope to visit one day.
Another Aussie here, you will never lose our support. Morally or otherwise. Slava Ukraine
Australian here, really enjoyed this video. Impressed with the knowledge displayed, appeciate the positive opinions of our place and people. Australia stands with Ukraine 🇭🇲🤝🇺🇦
Speak for yourself. Don't volunteer my allegiance you coward.
Its really solemn for a person in a country at war to wish us peace and happiness, you never know the true value of both until you are at risk of losing it.
Many years ago I worked with a man from Ukraine. He came to Australia after the second world war.I used to call him uncle nick.Recently I donated crypto at the start of the war to get your funds up fast.I think world wide many people donated this way.All my best to you all going forward with this conflict and I hope for it to end soon. Happy New Year to all Ukrainians.

Amazingly well informed! Ukrainians are most welcome to visit! I think your humour is similar to ours!
Impressively well informed. Emu wars even. 😀. And yes. Where are those F18s? On their way I hope. Learning a lot about Ukraine since this war started and very impressed. You will win 👍🇺🇦 🇺🇦🇦🇺
As an Australian this was a very funny interview with Ukrainian people! I constantly smiled & laughed.😂 I have been to Kiev & Odessa 3 times over the years. I loved the country, it’s cities & it’s people! I am obviously saddened with the war at the moment as I still have friends in Odessa.

I will send our Battle Roos to you! 💪🏼 🦘😈🦘😈🤣
Ukraine must have an excellent education system, they are so knowledgeable and well spoken, and we really should send them at least one division of kangaroos.
I think the real warriors, however, are the Emus. They’ve won two wars already apparently although I did miss that in the news. Send Emus and Kangaroos.
Try asking an American where we are
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emu_War@@teeanahera8949
@@teeanahera8949 The Emu wars were real. They were eating wheat seeds, and infant crops, and exploding in number. So we sent a division of Soldiers out to cull them. But an Emu is 95% feathers. The Soldiers used about 50,000 rounds, and only managed to kill a handful of Emus. Running out of ammo, our Soldiers bravely retreated...
This actually happened twice. It may be why First Australians never adopted a bow and arrow. An Emu's feathers stop any arrow before it hits anything important, and arrows either bounce off a kangaroo, or piss it off. Neither's a good result.
Currently we're losing Wars against Camels, Water Buffalo and Cane Toads. All of which we introduced. 😥
@@tsubadaikhan6332 there were THREE soldiers and they used about 10,000 rounds to kill just under 1,000 emus. After this complete disaster the government returned to the original plan and issued ammunition directly to the farmers, who were mostly verterans of the First World War. After that emu numbers were reduced, but not to the level desired by locals (that being zero).
The aboriginals had no need for bows as the woomera is an all weather weapon (a bow is definitely not) and a woomera provides more punch for less work/weight/effort/training. A spear driven by a womera would go through an emu regardless of its feathers.
Great interviews. Very knowledgeable people. Thank you.
I loved this and super impressed by how much the people interviewed knew. Much love to you all in the Ukraine and I hope for peace and security
Sadly the emu war wasnt a joke. Humans lost. But it was a stupid idea doomed from the start. Those 2 young guys were really well informed. Tell the nice lady we wish her well and that we are quite safe from those animals. You dont really see them. You need to come visit when its possible.
Except it was ONE stupid Emu War! 😁 Yes, they are welcome here! 🤗
Emu war of 1932 well described ua-cam.com/video/9gDjQ3KAi1w/v-deo.html
The emu war.
A sad tale of European Australians trying hard but not knowing how to go about it.
Non indigenous Australians still have a lot to learn.
A bit slow really.
"you don't really see them" ??? !!
who has time to look around when you are being torn apart by a great white shark?
That said, I have not seen every deadly snake I've accidentally kicked until after I've kicked it and subsequently returned to the ground. I have been bitten by several red backed spiders (all at once) and I did not see them until i shook out my clothes looking for them. I have been stalked by a saltwater crocodile and had to detour around massive Roos with attitude.
It is reasonable to say you don't actually see them, but unreasonable to leave out " until it is to late".
The Emu War has never ended. The Dingo War is the real story. Koalas are functionally extinct ( that cute look is actually inbreeding and they are genetically doomed ) This place is a saga.

I wished we would do more to support Ukraine. Some of us follow what's going on in Ukraine every day and donate what we can afford. Heroiam Slava ! Also the dangerous animal thing is way overblown.
Except crocs.
A lot of us have followed events from day 1, and support more than ever. 🇭🇲🤝🇺🇦
How can ypu say that with all the lies we have in our media. How is that view even possible. Do you investigate what's ACTUALLY going on there?
@@jamieleslie1177 I have a background in Russian history from Tsarist years until now, and I have been following events very very closely for almost 2 years. So yes I have investigated what's really going on in Ukraine - that's why I support them more than ever.
Are you referring to the lies of right-wing media in Australia, such as Fox and other Murdoch press? Or to left wing or independent media here? There are multiple narratives in the media space. Newsflash - the government in Australia doesn't dictate a narrative to our media.
For in depth background, information and analysis you do need to use sources outside Australia. Use multiple sources, compare and contrast, evaluate source reliability, and especially use critical thinking at all times.
Do this in depth for a year or two, you might stop making silly statements about something you obviously know very little about
Shhhhh, don't let the cat out of the bag !
Well done 🇦🇺 and 🇺🇦 from 🇬🇧

Thanks bro!)
Among other things, Australia provides Ukraine with flat-pack cardboard drones. It’s a very cost effective way to use drones and they can be transported easily.
Yes, good...but they need thousands or tens of thousands. Not hundreds. The story of Western Aid pretty much.
@@riykkzsunshine9669
Please bear in mind that countries who give “western aid” have issues within their own countries that need addressing like homelessness, medical etc. (I’m not comparing this to war just pointing out facts)
Countries give more than they can actually afford, which I don’t begrudge, but please try not to sound ungrateful there are enough people in those countries complaining about how much is sent OS in aid without people receiving it complaining.
I hope peace comes soon
@@riykkzsunshine9669 The United States is a net exporter of Petroleum Products and LNG. The longer this War goes on, the more Profit Exxon-Mobil and Chevron make. The USA organises enough weapons for Ukraine to stand firm, but not enough for them to win. It's a sucky situation for Ukraine to be in.
Hi from Australia. Slava Ukraine
Can I ask why you are using a Nazi slogan?
@@jamesrowlands8971 ? No idea what you are talking about?
@@playlisttarmac the "Slava" saying was used during WW2 by Ukrainian Nazis who helped conduct the Holocaust.
@@jamesrowlands8971 wasn’t it first used in 1917 before the Nazi party even existed?
@@jamesrowlands8971 In regard to the Holocaust my Jewish friends/colleagues and Israeli expats I know have no problem with "Slava Ukraine"?
I feel Ukraine will become a popular travel destination for Australians after the war has ended. Ukraine will become a thriving and prosperous democracy in the future.
That depends upon who wins the war. The American conservatives are blocking aid to Ukraine in Congress. The top Republicans support Putin and Trump has openly said he admires Putin.

Very impressed with their answers. Wishing all the Ukrainians a better new year ❤️
The young lady recognised that Australia is (currently) not in dire conflict with any country. The experience of Australia is so different from that of Europe. We have problems, have done wrong by the Aboriginal peoples and are vulnerable to China, but we have a different mentality to Europeans who have had to live generationally with conflicts with neighbours at huge cost. Australians do support Ukraine in this war of aggression by Russia that is seeking to impose its imperialist vision on the country and people of Ukraine. We see Ukrainians as independent people and they have proved to be resilient, innovative and strong. My view of Russia and Russians has plummeted since Putin’s war of terror. I’d be happy to welcome Ukrainians to this country. We have a lot in common. The Russians can go jump.
Going to be honest, when i started this video, I didn't expect someone to say aboriginal art. I just thought it was going to be animals like usual. Thank you, Ukraine, for being different and knowing Australia
Love it,
Being half Ukrainian and Australian. This is nice to see 😊
From Australia. We stand with you and will keep sending our support.
Don't give up.
Hello from Australia, you will never, ever, lose our support ❤We stand with you, always, Slava Ukraini💛💙
I'm glad we can help Ukrainians during this very difficult time. I have to say, they know a lot more about Australia than people from other countries do! I'm impressed 😊 Just a note: dingoes have been here about 4000 years - a long time before English ppl came here. And most of us live in large cities, so we hardly ever see crocodiles, sharks or other dangerous animals 😅
Dingoes are estimated to have been here over 6,000 years ago. All the “large cities” above Gladstone or Exmouth have crocs close enough to town for people to see them. My favourite is the croc that crawled up on to the freshly laid concrete footpath in Cooktown right at the ‘Beware Crocodiles’ sign. Crocs are seen in Cairns, Darwin, middle of Mackay in the Pioneer river, and the outskirts of Townsville & Rocky.
It’s great to see a country that educates their citizens.thank you from Australia 🐨🇦🇺
As an Aussie, I'm really impressed with Ukrainian knowledge of Australia.
LOL 3:30 ~ Buddy! Living in Australia, is not as dangerous as living in Ukraine. If we all owned a pet Taipan, then living in Australia wouldn't be more dangerous than living in Ukraine. How to explain this? There are a lot of very old jokes that have become part of the culture, the tradition. We used to joke to people from England, that we all rode around on Kangaroos. We told them Australian schoolgirls are taken out into the desert when they turn 13, and set loose, and if / when they walk out, they're accepted as adults. We told American servicemen in training for the Vietnam war, that Australia has drop-bears. A drop Bear is like a a Vampire or Werewolf version of a Koala. They drop from the trees and rip your throat out. Why did we tell them that? So they'd walk around all the time looking up and tripping over things, while we laughed at them. it started as a very simple joke from one Australian soldier to one American soldier, but it has become part of the national folklore.
There are a few very poisonous critters here, but you hardly ever see one. They do exist, but if you live a normal suburban lifestyle, you're not going to get killed by one. Or ~ ok, people do get struck by lightening, people do get squished under falling trees ~ examples of both have happened in the last 36 hours, within about 40km of my house. That doesn't mean those are normal things. It's probably not going to happen to me or you.
PS: If I see any drop bears I'll stick a postal stamp over one eye and post them to Putin c/o The Kremlin.
PS: Margot Robie is an Australian and we're very proud of her. If you judge Australia by Margot, that'd be excellent.
Although in Ukraine Margot would be classed as a 6 out of 10 (joke) but seriously WTF?!!?
A kiwi living in Australia,it’s been awesome,I really loved this Video,thanks Ukraine,keep safe ,❤️❤️❤️
Australian here. You’re welcome to all the help we can provide. Ukrainians seem like the most beautiful people and I loved these interviews. We’ll continue to fight the kangaroos so it’s safe if you ever decide to visit, in which case you’d be more than welcome.

🇦🇺💙💛✌ 🇺🇦 I came to Australia from a war torn country in Africa in 1974. For the first time I was lucky enough to visit Tasmania for a week 24th December to 31st where also for the 1st time I and my daughter who lives in Canada and who also shouted me me this holiday, watched a part of Melbourne's fireworks. I cannot begin to describe the magnificence of the world heritage wilderness of this ancient island.
This was a very fun video to watch and I am impressed about how much Ukrainians know, even the Emu war which was an actual thing until the stupid Brits gave up!😂
I have lived with many of the "killer" wildlife peacefully on a 20 hectare property in a remote part of the Victorian High Country including the third most venomous snake in the world, the Eastern Brown, frequent visitors that came for water when it is was very hot and dry and did me the favour of eating mice that were feasting on the chicken's grain. We had a healthy respect for one another but I did have to call in a local snake expert a couple of times to catch very big Browns who decided to move in permanently and return them back up into the mountains.
The EMU thing is true, they beat us twice :) really well educated people, Im amazed they know so much

As Australians we are disgusted with Russia (Putin ) and all Russian citizens that are keeping their heads in the sand not wanting to be “ political “ allowing THEIR Country’s unprovoked aggression to destroy the lives of people that are meant to have so much in common… for what ?That’s not the Australian way. We help our neighbours, we help strangers in need and would fight to protect the defenceless.

To be fair "keeping your head in the sand" in Russia is probably the only way to keep it

Ukrainians arent just the coolest people in the world, they're incredibly well informed. I look forward to visiting your country as soon as possible, in happier times.
Wow. Your interview just gave us more reasons to love Ukraine and Ukrainians. So impressed by how knowledgeable the people you interviewed were. I'm from Aotearoa/ New Zealand and sadly, our new government is no longer doing much to help Ukraine but, l'm so grateful to Australia for their on-going help.
I know the man said he was joking about the Emu Wars but, they were a real thing - well, at least one war was.
"The Emu War was a military operation in Western Australia in 1932 to control the population of emus, a large, flightless bird that was destroying crops:
After World War I, thousands of "soldier settlers" moved to Western Australia, and emus migrated to the area in search of food. The Great Depression was also straining farmers' crops.
The Australian government sent soldiers with rifles to shoot the emus, but the operation was a failure.
The emus were quick and difficult to target, and the military only killed about 1,000 of the estimated 20,000 emus in the area.
The operation was deemed a failure, and the military withdrew. The emus continued to thrive, and farmers had to find other ways to protect their crops.
The Emu War is a bizarre chapter in Australian history that highlights the emus' role in the country's ecosystem and cultural identity.
The emus were considered the "victors" of the war."
Australian here. This demonstrates how well educated and civil ukrainians are. Australia will always support countries like ukraine when faced with such bold faced aggression. It makes me happy to know our taxes are going to such a good cause and people.
Great vid from Australia 🇦🇺
So well informed!❤
I think it both wonderful, and disturbing how much it seems that Ukrainians know about Australia.
Disturbing as you seem to have a better understanding than our own politicians
Love the two guys talking about the emu war and the animals.. funny buggers. (Except we only lost to Emu's once, mainly because we sent an Artillery officer to sort out an infantry problem, the Emu's were really pissed off because their mates were wiped out in Tasmania, along with the Tasmanian Tiger, so you can't blame them.... and Emu's are not Ostriches)
